Shopping

I love to shop (but my husband doesn%26#39;t). Best places for shopping with reasonable prices for: women%26#39;s clothing %26amp; accessories, souvenirs? Will be my first time in Vegas. Of course I will be doing a lot more than just shopping while in Vegas but I generally spend one or two days just buying souvenirs and looking for unique items when on holidays. Thanks for any info.

Shopping

There are two ';regular'; malls on the strip. I know someone who lives in Canada and she does all her shopping at the malls in the USA when she visits because she says even the ';regular'; malls have prices lower than those in Canada.

The Forum Shops at Caesar%26#39;s Palace:

The Fashion Show mall on the strip between TI and The New Frontier. Click on the map to enlarge it and you will find a list of stores:

There are 3 outlet stores. I have had some luck with the one on Charleston Blvd although I don%26#39;t usually buy clothes in Vegas:

Las Vegas Premium Outlets 875 S. Grand Central Pkwy, I-15 exit 41B, Charleston Blvd.

Las Vegas Outlet Center 7400 Las Vegas Blvd.

This one is about 45 minutes away from the strip:

Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas- Primm

All the hotels have gift shops where you can buy souvenirs. There are also little shops up and down the strip that sell inexpensive souvenirs. The biggest ';cheap'; souvenir shop is called Bonanza and it is on Sahara and the strip.

Shopping

There is also plenty of souvenir shops in walking distance up and down the Strip where you can pick up gifts and souvenirs.

Some bargains includes, T-shirts 4/$10, key chains and many other items. There is also the Coca Cola Store, Ethels M%26#39;s Choclate and The M %26amp; M World which your husband may enjoy while sight-seeing, and you can pick of a few Las Vegas speciality items there as well.

My wife and I shopped at the Premium Outletts (see above post for address) and I thougth it was fantastic. Name brands at true outlet prices. Its about a 15 minute drive (door to door). We actually took a cab, just don%26#39;t get caught in traffic.

the fashion show mall is suppost to have a Cafe Ba-Ba-Reeba.

When I went in Oct with 6 friends for our 40th, we shopped and shopped. We enjoyed the Desert Passage at the Alladin. Not as many people and very nice stores.

We liked Caesar%26#39;s Forum shops best, over Desert Passage. It seemed to have everything from high-end to affordable stores.

Good info by vp03. If you%26#39;re looking for ';reasonable'; prices on things, I%26#39;d stick with the outlet malls and the regular mall on the Strip. Most of the shops in the hotels/casinos are filled with high end stores and the prices are outrageous!
